On the other hand, imagine what $20bn could have done to the public transit infrastructure in Boston, which is dying out for a Crossrail/RER style project to link the two main commuter rail terminals to allow through trains.
For what it's worth, the slurry walls constructed for the Big Dig tunnels were built to also accommate the North/South rail link if the state ever decides to fund it. That said the link is such a complex undertaking, I sincerely doubt it will happen in our lifetimes.

Directly linking North and South Station would be a big advantage. Right now bicycle is the only efficient commute.
